The Experience: On opening the box, DreamBaby didn't fail to impress me with their design, the first thing I noticed was the weight of the play-pen. It was heavy and that gave me peace of mind. I knew it wasn't going to be moved easily by a young child. I flicked though the instruction book then started putting the play-pen together and adding the gate extension, it was easy enough to work out taking me about ten minutes to set up. Adding the gate extension made the play-pen into a 8 panel larger play-pen making it easier to be used by my older children.

Over the 4 weeks that I tested the pay-pen I have used it mostly as a safe area for my older son to play "big boy lego" and other games that contain chocking toys away from my toddler. Adding the extension made the pen a great size to be used in this way. The play mat has been a nice feature making the floor warmer and softer. It also made packing up the lego easy as I just tipped it from the mat straight into the lego tub. I've also use the play-pen mat as a guide so my son knows where the lego has to stay so my toddler can't reach it through the bars of the pay-pen. This has been working nicely. My son use to play lego in a bedroom with the door shut so it's been nice for him to be in the main room with me playing without worrying his sister will get hold of the lego.


I'm pregnant with our fourth child and can see the play pen will get a lot of use once the baby is born.

The stand out feature of the play pen is the way it folds for storage. This feature makes it easy to pack up and take away which I plan on doing for camping trips once we have the new baby.

I would happily recommend the play-pen to anyone who needs a bit more security, in the home with small children or a baby. I would also recommend the play-pen opened as a long gate for anyone with an open plan kitchen/dinning room who don't have the option of a baby gate on a door.
